Question for you, I am about 160-165 and have been considering these for my Bob.
Did you adjust any of the settings on them or are they simply just too stiff compared to stock?
I really wasn't aware that these were meant for heavier loads or anything like that.
The heavy duty springs are for heavier riders.
Yes, I played with the settings. It came down to this: these lower the bike which means there is less room to soak up a bump, therefore to prevent bottoming they need to be set stiffer than stock. It is a tradeoff, you can get a better ride but have to accept you will bottom a lot or you can have a stiffer ride and not bottom.
